Nahum 2:7-9
New King James Version
7 [a]It is decreed:
She shall be led away captive,
She shall be brought up;
And her maidservants shall lead her as with the voice of doves,
Beating their breasts.
8 Though Nineveh of old was like a pool of water,
Now they flee away.
[b]“Halt! Halt!” they cry;
But no one turns back.
9 [c]Take spoil of silver!
Take spoil of (A)gold!
There is no end of treasure,
Or wealth of every desirable prize.

Nahum 2:7-9
New International Version
7 It is decreed[a] that Nineveh
be exiled and carried away.
Her female slaves moan(A) like doves
and beat on their breasts.(B)
8 Nineveh is like a pool
whose water is draining away.
“Stop! Stop!” they cry,
but no one turns back.
9 Plunder the silver!
Plunder the gold!
The supply is endless,
the wealth from all its treasures!
